Name me 3 Heavyweights that draw more then Cro Crop currently.

What does this prove? Only that UFC has heavyweights that don't draw. Sylvia and Lesnar are far bigger draws for a start. I'd argue Mir and Nog as well. The US fans now know Big Nog as the champ. That's more of a pull for a new star than anything Cro Cop did.

I would have loved Cro Cop to have been a huge star in the UFC but he blew it. Not anyone else. UFC pushed him like a superstar and he got fucked. He didn't even start training in a cage or using elbows on the floor until his third fight. HIS OWN FAULT.
